Yeah, I know cycle as well as many other products are bullcrap. But I have been unable to find bio spira in any pet shops, and the closest thing I can find is something called TurboStart by fritz-zyme. Probably another bs thing, but it does have to be refrigerated and it is specifically for either fresh or salt water. Sounds a little more plausible than a lot of the other cycle 'boosters". Does anyone have any experience with this product? I've heard all the skepticisms so please don't post unless you've used it, I'm having a bit of a blind hope that maybe someone has used it and it has worked.
 
If it's not expensive, try it. If it doesn't work, contact the manufacturer and whine politely. You may get some free stuff. Trust me, this can work to your advantage!

Otherwise, save your money and find a friend with a healthy, disease-free tank and have him/her give you a hunk of somewhat dirty (not scuzzy, just "brownish") filter material. PLENTY of bacteria to start the cycle. Be patient, it will cycle.
